Hi all

Here i use a small VDR-network with one "main-machine" (4 DVB-Devices) and
8 Harddrives.
2 Clients with only 1 DVB-Device and mounted the Harddrives from the
Main-Machine.

Everything works fine.

Now i want to expand the harddrivespace and connect a aditional Server to
this Network.

But now i get problems.

VDR allways use the /video device wich has the highes space on it. - so if
i connect
the Server to the network (for example as /video9) all Vdrīs only record to
this device.

If i only record 1 or 2 Streams at the same time there is  no problem - but
if i
(and my Brother) watch over the Clients (over the LAN) and the main-Machine
want to
record over the Network i get Problems because the netowrk ist too slow.

Is there any way to tell VDR that he only shuld use a specifyed number of
recordings over
the network ?


I know this is a realy specific problem - but i donīt have a solution for
it !

CU

Axel
